An After-thought
Well yes, the Captain got sucked into the whole 911 mumbo jumbo once again. I too saw the film the French guys made and was astounded at their "luck." I mean, here are two losers that were probably on strike from their day jobs in France, who somehow manage to con some fire station into a documentary. They stumble around in the way until BANG - death, destruction, and instant footage. It is a good thing, I suppose, that everything was docuemnted and hey, good for those guys. I guess I tried to keep from thinking about how terrible everything was by asking myself some of the following:
- Did the French guys know in advance that the strike would happen?
- How much did it cost that firm for the corparate brunch going on in Windows On The World?
- If I were minutes from death and that hottie in my office were willing, would I be capable of nailing her in front of other colleagues?
- Were there any base jumpers watching thinking, "Damn, I wish I were there"?
- Did any jumpers survive, perhaps by parachute?
- How many NYC dirtbags looted the dead and empty stores?
- How many homeless were killed?
- Do they cancel beverage service during a terrorist skyjacking?
- When do we get to hear the black box voice recorders?
- Why has the elevator company not been put out of business for their lame employees' reaction that day?
- When will they hurry up and build a bigger better trade center complex?
- Did the plane passengers only get frequent flyer miles for one segment?
- Do the passengers' families get frequent flyer Platinum status for life?
- How was the mob tied into events that day? You know they were in some way.
- Are parking tickets on destroyed cars still valid?
- Do they sell pieces of the towers online?
- Can we openly recruit suicide bombers to fly decommissioned jets into the Middle East targets?
- Why can't we hire hit men to take out these clowns in the Middle East? You know they will score.
- Are all leases in the towers null and void?
- How much confidential information was lost or used in corporate espionage?
That is all.
